try to avoid positioning with margin, coz IE makes up its own rules there:

try changing this bit

Code:

#main_bg {
width: 528px;
background: url(images/main_bg_rpt.png) repeat-y ;
margin: 52px 0 0 0;
padding: 10px;
}

to

Code:

#main_bg {
width: 528px;
background: url(images/main_bg_rpt.png) repeat-y ;
margin: 0 0 52px 0;
padding: 10px;
position:relative;
top:52px;
}

see if that fixes it

Sorry i have the site hosted for free so i could show you guys.

That code snippet you gave me solved my problem for IE but then i lose my bottom rounded corner in FF and Safari?

any way i could get it back without messing IE up again?

Thanks again

mmm cant check without site :S

the reason I kept that bottom margin of 52px was to make the rounded corners work in FF… but if its not working… can you get it up anywhere else?

just above your #main_bottom you have an extra "}" which is causing you some issues :)
